not sure if this belongs in the bobcat section or here so here it goes...
OK, long time lurker, first time poster. Looking at a compact loader for my parking lot snow removal. I have found a bobcat 2400 and a swinger 3000 locally. The bobcat has aux hydraulics and the bobcat quick attach plate but is twice the cost of the swinger. Fabbing a quick attach plate and adding a 3rd valve as well as plumbing aux lines down the mast would be a pain but it is worth it if the machine is cheap enough. Are there any large blaring weaknesses in either of these machines? Can I still get parts for the 2400? Does anyone still stock swinger parts?
